War in the Pacific is the Swedish Primenisters Favorite Strategy Game (He sayed in interwiev anyway)

Post by Japan »

The Swedish Priminister was on Interwiev on TV today, and he talked about his Hobbies.

The Largest of His Hoppy was to play War in The Pacific, Aproksemetly 2 Hours Every Day.

He did not dare to say his Gaming Name, as it could cause Complications for him, however he sayed he used as Gaming name, the same name as KGB internaly had assigned to be his Codename back in Coald War Times...

So, if any of you would faind the Codename the KGB in the old days had for the man who today is the Swedish Prieminister, well then you will know his Gaming Name.

Apparantly he has played the game for 3 Years, and he playes also a game he sayed was called Read Alet, and one called The Korsum Pocket also, but not so often as this "War in the Pacific".

Well Sir, If you Read this I just wanna say that i dont hope you are easely effected by Computer games (no that was a joke) .. Anyway.. what i wanted to say was Good Work on your Policy (i voted for you), and give me a word if you want to take a Game one day.

Probably not.
Any Primeminister saying to play computer games 2 hours every day would destroy his reputation instantly.

Why? I would imagine it would be a welcome distraction from all his other worries. If he is a gamer, why should he give up his hobbies because of his job?

Btw I hope he's not that Northern bloke we scared away from the forum a year or so ago - that one who wanted us to believe in his Chinese lancasters so much that he went as far as edit the corresponding Wikipedia entry and quote himself... Because if so I may be on his hitlist by now! [X(] [;)]

Oh man.  I can see it now.  Somebody around here has a PBEM game and blows the snot out of his CVs, and suddenly Sweeden is declaring war on ...
 
[:D]
 
Of course, he probably keeps tabs on the forums (next article in the Stockholm Times reads - "Inside investigation: Our prime minister spends hours each day posting on an internet bulleton board!").  In which case he knows that you know and ...  Other than the general amusment value, it's starting to make my head hurt...
 
Either way, welcome aboard to the mysterious Mr. ColdWarCodeName.

Wow. Interesting.

I’m sure that an E-5 who runs agents into China and is a personal friend of the Dir of Naval Intelligence is going to know everything, but I’m nevertheless fascinated.

Didn’t know Fredrik Reinfeldt was a player in the cold war years. I would have thought Olof Palme, or Carl Bildt, or Ingvar Carlsson; maybe even Goran Persson. Fred seems too young to have a file in the 2d Directorate. Woof! Maybe they really are 10’ tall!

Ya know, Fredrik’s not a bad sailor either. That gets him a good 6 out of 10 in my book, right there.
